Vision Distribution

Vision Distribution is an Italian film distribution company.[1] Sky Italia holds a majority stake. It is based in Rome.[2]

History

Vision Distribution was formed in 2016 as a joint venture between Sky Italia and production companies Cattleya (ITV Studios), Wildside (company) (Fremantle), Lucisano Media Group, Palomar and Indiana Production.[3][4] Vision Distribution reached an agreement with Universal Pictures to handle the Italian physical distribution of their films.[3] At the 2020 Berlinale's European Film Market, the company launched an international sales subsidiary, Vision Distribution International.[5]

In 2023, Vision co-produced and distributed Paola Cortellesi's There's Still Tomorrow (C'è ancora domani),[6] a black-and-white feminist comedy-drama. It was the most successful film at the Italian box office in 2023,[7][8][9][10] and nominally the 10th highest-grossing film in the country's history.[11]

In December 2023, The Hollywood Reporter Roma reported that Vision Distribution had become one of the top distributors in the country, rivaling RAI's 01 Distribution and Mediaset's Medusa Film.[1]
